Motoring Based Radio Shows

[Jem Thompson]

As per the title, are there any on the airwaves here? I know Dave Moore does a 5 minute piece on Newstalk ZB each week, and I hear the odd bit on the National Program, though that is usually only if it is topical (cellphones in cars gets a bit of coverage, the law comes in next week remember). I would love to know if there was a regular show featuring motoring stuff.

I listen to a few podcasts that are motor related, I save them to my MP3 an listen to them in the car. I am working my way through the 24Hr coverage of le mans as i follow the Targa at the moment....Awesome stuff! This is from the Radio le mans website.

Motorsport magazine have just launched a new podcast and it is fantastic - http://www.motorsportmagazine.co.uk/category/audio...

Checkered flag from the bbc - http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/fivelive/cff1/...

Gareth Jones on Speed - http://www.garethjones.tv/speedrss.xml

If you like Drag racing from the UK...(long shot) then Nitro FM is a great listen on race weekend.

I download a lot of general BBC uk radio (inc chequered flag), but instead of relying on podcasts I use replay AV from www.applian.com that takes all the BBC Iplayer stuff (real player format) and converts it to MP3. take a little bit to setup and capture the feeds but once set , its all good. I'm sick of NZ radio programming....

for podcasts a quick google for uk sites with audio podcasts for motorsport

A lot of it is just googling for what interests you.

Than you guys, I had never even considered podcasts before. I might go and find a cheap MP3 to stick them on. Gareth Jones on Speed is fantastic, had me in stitches. Im home studying for the next week, so I should get through a lot of them. But no New Zealand shows?
